Eagles and Angry Birds fans are invited to LOVE Park in Center City Philadelphia on Tuesday from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. to try their hands at a bigger-than-life version of the Angry Birds "Hammin' Around" building set.

K'NEX Brands, a toy company based in Hatboro, teamed up with the Eagles to create the set, in celebration of their mutual partnerships with Rovio and its super-popular Angry Birds video game.

Fans also will have a chance to meet Eagles players, cheerleaders and Swoop, the team's mascot, as well as win cool prizes. K'NEX staffers will be handing out free samples of the new K'NEX Angry Birds sets to the first 1,000 attendees.

This event celebrates the launch of the new Eagles-branded Angry Birds Facebook game, with new levels releasing throughout the season after every Eagles game.

A giant, life-sized version of the Mighty Philadelphia Eagle, who will be featured in the Eagles Angry Birds game, will be making an appearance at the park. Fans can take pictures of themselves with the Mighty Philadelphia Eagle and upload them to the Eagles' Facebook page for a chance to win season tickets.

The event is free and open to everyone in the Philadelphia area.
